Post subject: how to make a link to another computer
Archived from groups: alt>apache>configuration (more info?)
Hello,

I am new to apche and am trying to build a webserver.
So far I managed to get it working including some logins using .htaccess
files. I created a index.html with links to some directories in the
....\apache directory. For this purpose I created some aliases which are
working ok. I can see the contents of those directories. So far so good!

Next step is that I want to jump to another computer in my network, for
example to H:\data\files\ to see which files are in that directory. So I do
not want to connect to another apache computer, just to a network drive.
I keep getting the same error message in the logfile:
File does not exist: n:/datalab/ot/

I think it is very basic stuff but I think I am searching in the wrong
direction.

Can anybody please help me with this one?

This is not what's apache for, and he is not going to do it.

Please post the snippet of your configuration with the Aliases in
question.

Not quite enough info to go on.

Why not? Can't apache on windows see and acces files in networked drives?

OK. these are my hyperlinks in my index.html:
<A HREF="http://200.1.1.229/datalab/">
<A HREF="http://200.1.1.229/LOKAAL/">
<A HREF="http://200.1.1.229/OT/">

and these are my corresponding aliases:

Alias /datalab/ "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/jurgen/"

<Directory "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/jurgen">
Options Indexes MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

Alias /LOKAAL/ "C:/JURGEN/"

<Directory "C:/JURGEN">
Options Indexes MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

Alias /OT/ "N:/envisio/"

<Directory "N:/envisio">
Options Indexes MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

The first and the second are working, but the third one one. Apache is
running on w2k logged into netware 5 as admin

I am pretty sure it is something small, but I can't find it.

Any help would be great. Jurgen.

Sorry. I should have said, but you will also need to post any relevant
error messages.

Still not enough info for me to go on.

Also, another poster has suggested that using Apache to serve content
from a networked drive is not possible. Have you researched that at all.

Google is your friend.

later...

Maybe the share is not visible for the apache-process.

Is the share dedicatet to a logged-in user? If apache is running
as a service, the network-connection may not be established if
nobody is logged in at boot-time / startup-time of the apache...

[Only a suggestion, may be completely wrong...]
